#CIIP is delighted to launch a new compilation of eight case studies developed in conjunction with the 2023 Financial Inclusion study “Financial Inclusion in Post-COVID Southeast Asia: Accelerating Impact Beyond Access”. It is a collection of stories of how financial services providers (FSPs) in Southeast Asia have gone beyond the provision of financial services to make conscious efforts to address #underserved markets. These case studies reveal how these FSPs have done so by assessing their contributions to the #financialhealth of their customers and monitoring the #impact of their services. This compilation is put together by the Centre for Impact Investing and Practices (CIIP) in partnership with the eight FSPs featured in this compilation: Amartha (Indonesia), BPI Direct BanKo (The Philippines), Funding Societies | Modalku Group (Southeast Asia), Growsari (The Philippines), KoinWorks (Indonesia), Noburo Wealth-Being (Thailand), TYM - TINH THUONG MICROFINANCE INSTITUTION (Vietnam), and Vui App by Nano Technologies (Vietnam). It is intended as an accompaniment to the 2023 Financial Inclusion study, which had contributions from 60 organisations, including industry associations and investors, 31 FSPs and over 8,500 customers across six markets in Southeast Asia (Cambodia, Indonesia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam). Each case study delves into a unique approach adopted by the FSP and showcases their efforts to address specific challenges and create lasting impact in their respective communities. From empowering MSMEs to providing specialised services for low-income women, these companies showcase the diverse strategies which can be deployed to drive financial inclusion and uplift livelihoods. We are grateful to the FSPs featured for their time, insights, and willingness to share their journeys, so that others may be similarly inspired.
